CPO Warranty

Can anyone give me their thoughts on BMW CPO? I use to own a BMW 2004 X5 and now I'm looking at a 2008 with a CPO. I test drove it yesterday and it seems to run fine except on a couple times it seem like it wanted to roll back after I took my foot the brake to put my foot on the gas (at a stop light). Have any of you guyz experienced that with your X5's?

After my own research I'm discovering that CPO is limited and broad and way I see they will cover what they want to cover. I have read the BMW CPO guide.

You'd probably want to post in the E70 forum for comments on a 2008 model

I have an 08 4.8i and it never rolls back. If anything, it rolls forward even on steep up hills. But I don't think that is a good indication of a car in good shape or bad shape.

Get a prepurchase inspection for that piece of mind

it all depends on the the angle of the slope. if it rolls back on a 15% grade that is totally normal. however, on a relatively slack angle, the car should stay still and not go anywhere until the throttle is engaged.

Never rolled back at any reasonable slope.
